Even if we were to hold that the statutory presump-
          tion applies and that Estrada made out a prima facie
          case, the department rebutted this presumption.11 The
          department submitted three union grievances explicitly
          holding that the same adverse employment actions
          Estrada challenged before the commission were taken
          for just cause. The trial court held that the referee’s
          decision to exclude these decisions ‘‘was clear error
          and an abuse of discretion’’ because they ‘‘establish
          a legitimate reason for each action, namely, the poor
          performance of [Estrada],’’ and are ‘‘relevant probative
          evidence’’ that serves to ‘‘rebut’’ any presumption or
             11
                The trial court concluded that, even if the two year statutory presump-
          tion applied, it is rebuttable, and ‘‘[t]he record here clearly and unmistakably
          rebuts the presumption.’’
